Acne better after surgery?

I dont have facial acne but I notice I do have quite a bit spread out on my body. Not sure if anyone else suffers from this but I've heard before that sometimes obesity can cause acne as well as cysts on . I was wondering if anyone who has acne has had it clear up after surgery or get any better?? I was just curious because I tend to get it on my back and thighs a lot an it kind of bothers me at times.

When you are losing weight you are going to have more breakouts as your body releases hormones.

Lol omg that sounds awful! I was hoping it was the opposite..oh well. my overall health is much more important. Do you know if this is something that will last? Or just for the first few years? :/ I have a lot of acne on my thighs and get rashes easy with the occasional backne.. I'm hoping it doesn't make it TO much worse. :/ or at least isn't a forever type thing. Hmm. Thanks for the input!
